Al-Zein Shifts Focus to Prevention

Environment Minister Tamara Al-Zein confirmed that combating forest fires requires long-term efforts that go beyond firefighting teams. These efforts include investing in prevention, proactive planning, early warning systems, and strengthening coordination among various authorities. As part of the "Forest Fire Prevention in Lebanon" project, equipment was distributed, and 33 first responders were trained. Additionally, a operations room was established at the Souwajani Union of Municipalities to accelerate intervention when fires break out. She pointed out that the selected areas are based on annual risk data, and the activities involve training response teams and developing forest management plans. She emphasized that this is a shared responsibility among institutions, municipalities, and relevant stakeholders to preserve natural resources and reduce losses, especially as the threat of fires increases due to climate change and economic pressures.
